We are a small, bilingual family renovating/extending the old family farm here in the wood quarter of Lower Austria. The farm consists of The Farmhouse option to use as 2 seperate apartments), The Little House, The Circus Wagon plus barns and outbuildings for animals).
We are surrouded by our own land (approx. 4 Hectares) which we use to graze our animals and grow our own grains, fruit and vegetables. We’ll be building our very own dairy in one of the existing barns to produce cheese, yoghurt, butter and icecream (yum!). We would like to focus on keeping sheep and goats for this purpose as well as for wool and ultimately meat. We are aiming to become as self-sufficient as possible and already have our own productive veggie garden, orchard with apple, pear, walnut, cherry etc. Plus we keep both chickens (for eggs) and bees. We also have three cats just to round things off!
Paul is local, having grown up in nearby Krems an der Donau and Lauren is from London, having escaped to the beautiful Austrian countryside to live the dream/goodlife. Both of us always imagined sharing this wonderful place with others, particularly individuals or families from diverse backgrouds. We’d love a multi-cultural, multi-lingual community! So we’ve been working on creating multiple living areas that would work well for co-housing. All of which are in various states of completion (we try to only use natural building materials) and individuals or families would be more than welcome to make a place their own and create their own home here. We’ll carry on building until we find the right people but if someone wanted to put their stamp on the place and help mould the aspirations of Moa that would be fantastic. It would be amazing to have some more like-minded, energetic folk around to not only share the workload but also the vision of small scale, organic farming and community living.
Please contact us either here, via Facebook, workaway.com or intentional Communities.org or at lr*********@*mx.at. We’ll be more than happy to hear from you and arrange a visit or call to talk further.
